Story Summary

Whilst travelling to The Great Accacia Reaches, on the path ahead were some Royal Guards that the Earl decided to ride her donkey closer to talk with them, before they knocked her off her donkey and charged the party, with some fighting the Earl and her Guards, as well as Bran. Once defeated, Rourke found a ring on one of their bodies for when he planned to bring them back as his Zombie henchman. A guard had perished in the fight, so the party rode slightly ahead and set up camp. Over night, the Earl had a funeral pyre for the fallen Guard.
The next day, Rourke removed the curse from the Axe of Beserker that he had taken from an unconscious Belle the previous day. He also slid the ring onto his finger, which bound to his finger and began to ask hysterically where a Barry was. Rourke showed the ring the body that he got the ring from, but the ring, that goes by the name of Fajenai, said it wasn’t the body of Barry. Afterwards, the Earl led the party onward where the ring attuned itself to Rourke. The party arrived in a open cavern with boulders scattered, where a voice demanded in Terran, “Turn and leave or else!” The party did not.
